Proactive Displays

• “Displays will be

everywhere”

– What will we do with them? – What will they do for us?

• How can displays sense &

respond appropriately to the people & activities taking place nearby?

– Context – Content – Interaction models

Proactive Displays: the promise & peril

• The more we reveal about ourselves to

– People, businesses, objects, locations, …

• … the better able they are to respond

appropriately …

– Music, events, targeted advertising (?) – Injuries, pregnancies, other challenges

• … or inappropriately

– Privacy / benefit tradeoff

Revelation: musical preferences (while working out) Benefit: influence music selection

Proactive Displays, circa 2054

Proactive Displays in the Large

Alaris E-boards

Pint-sized Proactive Displays

• Convergence of Motes & Displays

– Mote processor + radio + LCD – Ultra low power – Future: bi-stable, color, reflective displays

Models for Proactive Displays

• Personal profile + contextual content

is stored in backend infrastructure

• Environment detects

identifier (e.g., RFID, Mote)

• Environment

computes personal profile x content and displays

• 1. Various

Identifiers

Models for Proactive Displays

• Personal profile stored on personal device;

Contextual content stored in infrastructure

• Content descriptor is sent

to the personal device

• Your personal device

computes personal profile x content and sends result for display

• 1. Content

Descriptor

• 2. Selected

Content Privacy management

Experience UbiComp Project

• Why focus on conferences (e.g., UbiComp)?

– Restricted context(s)

• Paper/Poster/Demo sessions, Breaks, Lunch, Reception

– Content is available

• Registration info (badges), homepages

– Desire to reveal details about yourself

• Show & tell, learn about others & their work

Who is this guy (and why is he asking that question)?

What poster should I see next?

(Trip Report: what posters did I see?)

What do we have in common?

Challenges

• Identification & Tracking

– RFID, Motes, Personal Server, other handhelds/wearables, …

• Profiles

– What does a profile look like? – Where does it come from (explicit / implicit)? – Privacy management

• Contextual Content

– What is displayed (in different contexts)?

• Interaction Models

– Proactive, interactive, hyperactive, …

• Evaluation

– [How] will we have enhanced the UbiComp Experience?
